Jun 7, 2019 at 1:12 comment added Arturo Magidin This is a relation between any set that contains $1$, $2$, and $3$, and any set that contains $1$, $2$, and $9$. It tells you that the $1$ in the first set is related to the $1$ in the second; that the $2$ in the first set is related to the $4$ in the second, and that the $3$ in the first set is related to the $9$ in the second. But you don’t speak of relations in the abstract, you speak of relation from one set $X$ to one set $Y$ (just like you don’t generally speak of “functions” without saying what the domain and codomain are, at least by convention).
